Dad

On this day four years ago, I stood beside my father-in-law Carl's hospital bed and watched him take his last breath. He had battled lung cancer for almost a year. He was the strongest yet kindest man that I have ever known or ever will. Carl showed me what a father should be and loved me like no one else. He was the person I would call if I needed any advice or a good recipe. He always had an answer and if he didn't he would find it. He showed me through his actions what a Christian should be. He believed in me when I didn't. I am honored to call him Dad.
I miss you so much Dad and can't wait to be reunited.
